This chapter is about verifying your installation by performing a simple test to see that your system is properly installed.

Windows

Start Erlang/OTP by double-clicking on the Erlang shortcut icon on the desktop.

Expect a command line window to pop up with an output looking something like this:

  Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.0] [64-bit] [smp:2:2]

  Eshell V6.0  (abort with ^G)
  1>

Exit by entering the command halt(),

  2> halt().

which should close the command line window and stop Erlang/OTP.
